Mated to the Alpha triplets novel Chapter 10

~ Olivia

The next teacher came in but all my attention was on the group presentation. I couldn’t focus during the entire class. I only snapped back to the present when the teacher gave us the instruction to bring out the assignment we were given in his last class.

Oh my gosh. I completely forgot about the assignment. It's all their fault, how can I focus on school with all the problems swirling around me? What am I gonna do? How do I escape from this?

I was lost in my deep thoughts when I felt a tap on my shoulder. Josh was whispering to me, “Olivia, Mr Patrick is here.”

Someone cleared his throat. I looked up to see him directly in front of me with an eyebrow raised. 

“Care to share what's got you so occupied? Everyone has placed their assignment on their tables as I instructed, except you, Olivia. Bring out yours too.”

“Mr… Patrick… I…” I stammered, but I was unable to say anything. All eyes were on me. They were all snickering and muttering

.

A girl behind me muttered loud enough for me to hear, “Is she the only one in this class? She is always in trouble. If I were her, I wouldn't bother coming to school anymore.”

Another one added. “And yet, she always has that proud expression on her face. I guess she doesn't really understand how shameful being an omega is.”

Everyone laughed at their words. Mr. Patrick shushed them, but I could still hear the snickers and mocking laughter. Just then, the bell rang for lunch. Mr Patrick went soft on me by asking me to do the assignment and ensure I submitted it before classes the following day.

I was walking dejectedly out of class with Josh behind me when I heard Lucien's voice bellowing at me from across the hall. “Olivia, to the rooftop now!” He strode off.

Why can’t I just have a peaceful day for once? I guess that’s too much to ask for.

I said goodbye to Josh and hurried after Lucien who seemed to have vanished.

I got to the rooftop panting and the triplets were nowhere to be found. I looked around, but I couldn't find Helen either. I waited and stewed in silence, but I didn't dare leave.

These people have to be kidding me. I ditched lunch and ran here kike I was being chased only to find no one here. How annoying.

Just when I decided to head back, the door to the rooftop opened. It was Helen and the triplets. They had just finished having their lunch according to their discussion.

“Were you here all along, Olivia? I was wondering why I didn't see you in the cafeteria. We didn't know you were here waiting. I'm sorry, I hope you aren't mad at us” Helen asked as she approached me.

“I told the triplets to take you with us to the cafeteria, but you were nowhere to be seen and I was starving. They couldn’t watch me go hungry, so they asked us to go without you. I’m sorry if I offended you.” She added.

I puffed at her devilish act. Such a pretentious liar, always hanging around my… Whoa! They're not my anything. Don't get any ideas, Liv.

Logan cuts in. “You don't have to apologize for anything, Helen. Olivia, you will be the one to do the fieldwork for our presentation but don’t worry, we will do the presentation. Just make sure you put the right samples together. Make sure you get the topic from the teacher today and get to work immediately.”

I already suspected that they would do something like that, but I still tried to protest against it. "That's not fair. It's called a group project for a reason, Prince Logan. We're to work on it together, not dump most of the work on one person."

Lucas stepped forward and growled. "You know, that arrogant and disrespectful tone of yours is really beginning to piss me off. Don't forget that you're nothing but a stupid omega. Keep this up and I'll have you whipped."

My throat clogged at the thought of the horrible punishment usually reserved for traitors and rogues. How can they hate me this much? No matter what, we're still mates. How can they bear to treat me this way even after feeling the mate pull? I didn't ask for this, moon goddess. It's absolutely not fair, why must you play with my life like this?

"Lucas! That's not nice, you'll frighten her!" Helen's shrill voice grated on my nerves.

Lucas didn't reply, he just growled and walked off, Lucien going after him. Logan turns to me and commands, "Work on the project and bring whatever you've done along with you to school tomorrow," before also stalking off.

Helen and I both watched them leave, shock in my eyes and a calculating gleam in hers.

"You should just leave, Olivia. Go somewhere far away and don't ever come back. It should have sunk in by now that you're not wanted here." Her smile was like that of a viper.

"Enough, Helen. How many times do you want me to tell you that I don't want them, you can have them. Just stay away from me."

With that, I turned to leave only to feel a sharp pain in my skull. Helen had grabbed me by my hair.

She moved closer to me with my hair still in her grasp and hissed, "Watch it. I'm the Beta's daughter and a far more dominant wolf. I can talk to and treat you however I want, omega bitch."

She released me and pushed me off before walking off.

I just stood there with pain and anger warring in my chest.
